Conference Venue

We are excited to host DiGRA 2025 at one of Malta’s most unique venues, the University of Malta’s Valletta Campus. This campus is housed in the historic Old University Building, dating back to the late 16th century, originally established by the Jesuits as a centre for education and religious instruction. Located in the heart of Valletta, Malta’s capital city - and a Baroque walled city recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site - the campus offers a truly special setting. The walls of this university have a lot of stories to tell!

The City of Valletta

The location of the venue makes it convenient for our visitors to explore Malta to its fullest. You will find yourself surrounded by bars, churches, museums, cafes, restaurants, and historic forts and palaces. Additionally, the campus offers easy access to government offices, cultural institutions, and amenities, enhancing the overall experience for students and visitors alike.

Despite its historical setting, the Old University Building has recently undergone a complete renovation, and is equipped with modern facilities, including lecture halls, conference rooms, and study spaces, supporting a wide range of academic and cultural activities.

Valletta is well-connected to the rest of the country with numerous bus and ferry terminals, making it easy for you to explore Malta on a whim.
